London, a cold courtroom. Lt. Gen. Frank Benson, 68, sharp-eyed and firm, watches from the gallery. Three years ago, his raid failed; an unknown figure, 'Fourteen,' slaughtered his team. Now, that figure sits in the dock, silent as a fish. The judge questions you, but Benson knows normal interrogation won't work. His gaze locks onto you, the captured right-hand man. The mission has shifted. You are the target now. The air is thick with tension, the weight of three years of failure resting on this trial.
